For some months now,
Bamenda II municipality has recorded recurrent power cuts. This is so due to
the ageing installations and electrical network supplies. To remedy the
situation, the electricity supply company, ENEO KICK starts a rehabilitation
plan in the Bamenda II Municipality aimed at replacing wooden poles with metal
poles as well as the replacement of low quality transformers and their accessories.
Within the framework of the implementation of
this programme, Eneo Cameroon in the Press Release issued by the Regional
Delegate for North West informs its customers in Bamenda II that it would begin
intensive works on Tuesday.
The Press Release further states
that:” a powerful team of
Eneo engineers and technicians as well as 8 of its partner companies have been
mobilized to execute these works.
The works consists of:
-
planting 50 metal and wood poles
-
replacing 447 insulators
-
replacing 12 protection devices
-
Installing 20 new distribution transformers thereby replacing the former ones
-
Installing 35 crossarms
These works are going to improve on the
service quality in the neighborhoods concerned notably by reducing the risks of
drop in voltage in the localities concerned. Works will be executed in 3
phases. During the first phase from 16 to 18 May 2017 the neighborhoods and localities concerned are as follows: Ntaturu;
Bali Parck; Azam; Nitop 2; Old Cenajes; CDE Mbatu; Travellers; Azeri New
Church; Buea/Bamenda Street; Atuakum; Abango; New Bell; Metta Quartes; Atuazeri;
Azeri Old Church; and Mbengwi Road.”
For
safety purposes, the Regional Delegate for ENEO in the North West Region,
Michel Mbopda further informs the population of these localities that they
shall be deprived of electricity from 6am -7 pm. during operations, these
localities will be deprived of electricity. This work, he emphasized in the
statement “is part and parcel of Eneo Cameroon’s five-year investment plan that
will be speed up in the North-West Region in view of the urgency of the
situation, subject to the availability of funds. It should be recalled that a
similar exercise took place in Nkambe where some wooden poles were replaced and
the old transformers changed. The rehabilitation
helped in curbing electricity cuts and regularized voltage in the town.
